Model Uncertainties for Soil-Structure Interaction in Offshore Wind Turbine Monopile Foundations
Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2018 Monopiles are the most common type of foundation used for bottom-fixed offshore wind turbines. This investigation concerns the influence of uncertainty related to soil–structure interaction models used to represent monopile–soil systems.

The advanced p-y method for analyzing the behaviour of large-diameter monopiles supporting offshore wind turbines [PDF]
E3S Web of Conferences, 2020 The analyses of monopile foundations have been heavily based on the p-y response curves (to represent lateral soil resistances) published by API RP 2GEO (2011) and DNV (2013), which are proven reliable and applicable for piles with smaller diameters that

Fatigue crack growth rates for offshore wind monopile weldments in air and seawater: SLIC inter-laboratory test results [PDF]
, 2016 The majority of fatigue crack growth (FCG) data sets available on steels in air and seawater environments are several decades old and may not be appropriate for structural integrity assessment of offshore wind turbine foundations, which are fabricated ...
